it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Our middle school students deserve the opportunity to thrive physically and mentally, yet many are limited by a lack of proper fitness equipment. With your help, we can provide aerobic platforms with adjustable risers for step training and cardio workouts, battle ropes to build strength and endurance, and weighted bars in multiple sizes to support safe strength training for all ability levels. We also hope to add anti-burst fitness balls to improve core stability, balance, and coordination. Physical activity is crucial for building self-esteem, improving health, and fostering teamwork, but tight budgets often make such resources out of reach. Your generous donation will directly impact the lives of these students, inspiring a lifelong love of fitness and ensuring every child has equal access to the tools they need to succeed.
